In October of 2007, Riley Aviation completed the acquisition of the property located at the entrace to the Kalamazoo/Battle Creek International Airport (AZO).  The property, which features an 8,000 sq.ft. hangar and 700 sq.ft. of office space, gives Riley added access to the West Michigan market.  The Kalamazoo location will be used to originate flights, hangar aircraft, provide in-house maintenance & fuel and coordinate sales & marketing efforts.

"Our Kalamazoo office represents our commitment to grow - to better reach our prospects and to better service our customers." stated Riley Vice-President Becky Riley-Bakeman, "But, it in no-way diminishes our operations and capabilities at our home office in Sturgis."

Riley intends to host an open house in Kalamazoo later this spring or summer to welcome the community to their new facility.  Riley 'north' will ultimately be staffed full-time during normal business hours.  The company will continue to offer 24-hour availability via their toll-free phone number at 800.247.2834.  Flight estimates can also be requested at the Riley website at www.FlyRiley.com.
